calm before the storm set it off; any - Lauchlan - 03-13-2017 He’s long passed the point of panic. It’s been months since he last saw Raeg’n, months since he last spoke to his nearest and dearest (and really, only, friend). He’s searched every inch of Tephra and found no trace of her, and he’s really beginning to worry that something’s happened to her. It’s so unlike her to just disappear like this. He’s known her to wander from time to time (always in search of better opponents, as she’s implied to him), but in all the years that he’s known Raeg’n, she’s never been gone for this long. And at the very least he knows that she wouldn’t just up and leave for this long without saying something to him. Not unless … No. No he knows better. After he’d finally revealed the truth to Reag’n, had told her about his curse, she’d been simply amazing. She’d pulled him close, had comforted him, had made him feel important in spite of his … differences. If she’d really had a problem with it, she would’ve told him then. Reag’n isn’t the sort to hide things after all, she’s the type to tell you what she thinks straight to your face … Right? He shoves that particular anxiety farther back in his mind as he begins one last sweep of Tephra. Maybe he’s just missed her somehow, maybe she’s holed up somewhere with Magnus completing some challenging training. Maybe … “RAEG’N! WHERE ARE YOU?” the itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout RE: calm before the storm set it off; any - magnus - 03-13-2017 magnus howling ghosts, they reappear but you're a king and I'm a lionheart RE: calm before the storm set it off; any - Lauchlan - 03-13-2017 No response, surprise, surprise. The panic begins to deepen and his mind starts spinning through the possibilities. Maybe she finally met an opponent she couldn’t beat, maybe she tried to take on a predator somewhere in the wilderness, maybe she got kidnapped, maybe … Lauchlan snorts, shaking his head. He’s getting too bogged down in the questions, in the ‘what ifs.’ If Raeg’n actually is in trouble, he’ll be no good to her if her just sits here panicking. But what next? What’s the next step in a situation like this? How exactly does one track down a missing person, when there’s no trail to speak of, no place to begin? His mind is starting to head back into panic mode when a male voice breaks through the closing walls. “Did you say Raeg’n?” Lauchlan’s head swings around to see an impressive looking buckskin stallion thundering down on him, and he can’t help but take a cautious step back. Unlike Raeg’n he’s made a point of avoiding all the other members of Tephra, and he has no idea how this stallion might react to a perceived ‘intruder’ (though if the stallion bothers to give him a good sniff he should be able to tell how much time Lauchlan has spent here). His caution turns to curiosity however, as the stallion reveals that, he too, has been looking for Raeg’n. He’s not alone in noticing that she’s been missing! “I haven’t been able to find her anywhere! And I’ve certainly been looking …” How many times has he scanned Tephra now?! Finally, his curiosity deepens to understanding as the stallion reveals his name. “Magnus! Oh! I know you! Uh … I mean Raeg’n’s talked about you a lot. She told me you’ve been training her.” He scuffs his hooves awkwardly against the dirt. While Raeg’n has talked about the Tephra warrior a ton, he rather doubts she’s said much to him about Lauchlan in return. Why would she, after all? “I’m Lauchlan. I’m her … I’m her friend.” the itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout RE: calm before the storm set it off; any - magnus - 03-18-2017 magnus howling ghosts, they reappear but you're a king and I'm a lionheart |
